Houghton Lake Cottage Escape w/ Patio!

Change up your scenery to the beautiful blue waters of Houghton Lake at this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom vacation rental. Begin your mornings with a cup of joe on the patio, followed by relaxing days of fishing and boating. Go skiing or snowmobiling in the winter months. When dawn turns to dusk, retreat to the warm embrace of this charming cottage. Serve a hot meal from the fully equipped kitchen, gather by the Smart TV for a movie night, and roast s’mores in the backyard.
